Dear Bike Companies:

[BleeckerSt_Girl]

I have been intrigued by the geometry of Terry bikes from time to time. But I've seen them in person, and tempting though the WSD fit issue might be, I wouldn't be caught DEAD riding a bike with those fluffy bunny colors and frou-frou flowery swirls or whatever they are on it. I'm not ten years old.

Never did like Barbies either.

I liked Midge. She had freckles like I did. I had a Barbie and a Barbie dream house. Barbie frequently committed suicide by jumping off the roof of her dreamhouse leaving the house and contents to Midge.

I don't really want a pastel bike.

I do believe you were meant to do law dealing with property claims and people's wills.

I dunno, I think it would be fun to drop guys while riding a pink hello kitty bike. i

I think Terry does a great job on their paint. Their bikes are subtle, classically colored but with just the right hint of feminine touches in the paint to keep them looking elegant, delicate and yet powerful. As far as paint is concerned, they are my favorites.

And who could forget the K2 jetstream with accompanying hibiscus flowers?

Haha

K2 luvs them some hibiscus flowers (haha... skiiers out there get it?).

I have a K2 mountain bike with hisbiscus flowers....



Personally I really love that my road bike (Specialized Dolce) is black and white with just a couple pink accents. Feels like just the perfect amount of girly-ness.

Well, whatever, I ride red and black bikes. I'd go for a sage and silver bike...

I don't mind being marketed to, but I want quality! It bugs me when I see the choices in bigger size bikes that I can't find in my size. Like NICE components. It is getting better every year. I have money that I want to spend on things other than color, but if I like the color, all the better.

If I were a bike designer, I would be beside myself reading this thread. It's like herding cats.
I wouldn't want to make the decision to make a powder blue bikes for ladies...with a hibiscus.. blam!

I've never been a fan of girly colors in bikes or clothing, but that's my personal preference.

The irony is that I have never owned a women specific bike, but my last bike that I bought (my TCR Giant (Men's frame)) is black with LOTS OF PINK! So, at least, we know the boys have to suffer too with colors they may not like.

I bought the bike cause it was exactly what I wanted and it was last year's model (in pink) so I got a deal. I'd take the deal any day to the color that i wanted, so Now, I own a pink bike! Horrors!

Love it! That would be quite the combination!

I was in a guitar shop the other day with my brother...they had two or three Hello Kitty guitars hanging on the wall. I'd love to see a little girl out rock some tough guy on one of those...

It's just inspiring to see a strong woman on a bike that suits her, physically and personality-wise.
